Described herein are devices, systems, methods, and processes for managing the collection and synchronization of telemetry data in a network overseen by a cloud-based network controller. This can be achieved by representing telemetry data as doubly-indexed state blocks within a shared meta-schema. Each type within the schema may be associated with a temporal list of objects of that type, providing ordered indexing by name and by time of last change. Cursors representing data witnesses may be threaded in place within these lists, enabling synchronization of telemetry data between devices without buffering. The system can dynamically adjust telemetry collection cadence in real time across devices in the fabric as users navigate the user interface. This approach can provide an effective mechanism to manage the load created by the telemetry, particularly in the context of network switches and telemetry collection.
